CERAMIC SURFACE UNITS
WHAT TO DO
To prevent pitting on
the cooktop, carefully
use a single-edge
razor blade held with a
pot holder to scrape
the melted material or
sugary boilover to a
cooler area of the
cooktop. Use several
layers of paper towels
to wipe up the
spillover, being careful
not to burn yourself.
When the element has
cooled, use the razor
blade to scrape off the
remaining soil.
Use Cooktop
Polishing Creme or
nonabrasive cleanser
with damp paper towel
or sponge.
Use Cooktop Polishing
Creme or nonabrasive
cleanser with damp
paper towel or sponge
before heating the
cooktop again. If
heated before
cleaning, metal marks
may not come off.
Scratches and abra-
sions do not affect
cooking. In time, they
will become less
visible as a result of
cleaning. To prevent
scratches and abra-
sions, use Cooktop
Polishing Creme
regularly.
